Will Auto Insurance Rates Increase in New York After Speeding Ticket?
Reader’s Question:
I reside in Colonie New York and got 2 speeding tickets in Rhode Island. The second speeding ticket was just 5 days ago. Will my car insurance provider find out about the new ticket if I end up obtaining a different punishment? I would like to know if my auto insurance rates will increase because of this?

New York State’s Department of Motor Vehicles does not record out-of-state violations committed by New York motorists, except for when it is a major offense or the violation was happened in Quebec or Ontario. With same exceptions of Quebec and Ontario, the New York State DMV does not add points onto your driving record for out of state tickets.
Due to the rules of the NYS DMV, normally your RI speeding tickets would not show up on your Colonie NY driving record. If the violations are not listed on your driving record it is unlikely that your insurance provider would find out about them when looking at your MVR to increase your car insurance rates.
